Publisher Description
“The Ransom of Red Chief” is the tale of a kidnapping. A couple of desperados abduct the ten year old son of the richest man in a village in the Deep South. But the pair soon discover that they have taken on far more than they had bargained for. The boy’s energy, curiosity, creativity, sense of mischief, and total lack of respect for his kidnappers soon has him running rings around them. And it turns out, the boy is a chip off the old block. His father is by no means a soft touch for a ransom and offers them a deal which they cannot refuse.

About O. Henry
O. Henry (1862–1910), born William Sydney Porter in Greensboro, North Carolina, was a short-story writer whose tales romanticized the commonplace, in particular, the lives of ordinary people in New York City. His stories often had surprise endings, a device that became identified with his name. He began writing sketches around 1887, and his stories of adventure in the Southwest United States and in Central America were immediately popular with magazine readers.
